Quinn’s Premier League grades
- Updated: November 28, 2016
We asked Sky Sports expert Niall Quinn to grade every Premier League team on their weekend displays.
There were victories for Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea, while Swansea won the match of the weekend as they overcame Crystal Palace in a nine-goal thriller.
But what did Quinn make of each team? Read on for his verdict…
Arsenal: B+
Arsenal were not as convincing in their 3-1 win over Bournemouth as the scoreline suggests when you look at it on a Monday morning. Alexis Sanchez gave a star performance both on and off the ball for them, and that allows me to give them a B+.
Chelsea: B+
Chelsea are purring along and I really like everything they are doing. Tottenham took the lead against them on Saturday, but they came back to earn a 2-1 win. Victor Moses has been a revelation and his display was superb once more.
Stoke: B+
Stoke were mean and tough and were everything you’d expect from them when they are playing well. I’ll give them a high mark for continuing to do what they do.
Liverpool: B+
Liverpool did everything that was asked of them in the win over Sunderland, although the injury to Philippe Coutinho looks to be an unfortunate one.
West Ham: B+
Slaven Bilic has been under serious pressure, so to go to Old Trafford and get a point is really good for him. He and his West Ham players deserve a good grade from me for that.
Manchester City: B
The fact Man City played in Europe in midweek might have been evident as they came from behind to beat Burnley. They were dogged, determined, resolute and they got the win, which is what it’s all about in the end. These results mean as much to a manager as the five-star 5-0 wins.
Southampton: B
Southampton enjoyed a great result against Everton, spoiling the homecoming of former manager Ronald Koeman. It was a great team effort and I think Claude Puel has done really well to get the players playing for him. Their centre-back, Virgil van Dijk, is as impressive a footballer as I’ve seen in many a …
